  1. three years ago: Detroit weekend series when Detroit was doing well compared to weekend series against Cleveland this year when Cleveland is doing well.
  2. Holy Cow. It's only been three years since I went to TF. The tickets I paid 75 for then are now 102. They have a lot of nerve.
  3. right now, could change that to 2-5, and later 3-5.
  4. Also, while on the mound, he yells at his own players if they make what he determines to be a mistake. Right there, in front of everyone, right on the field.
  5. I beg to differ, though having NHL players would make it MORE exciting.
  6. Hockey. Only Hockey :-)
  7. Cashner is signed. Orioles, 2 years
  8. He was worth over 16M last year. Hopefully he does as well this year or even better. An offer of less than 7M wouldn't cut it, IMO.
  9. He's signed. Orioles.
  10. And Cashner. Someone picked Cashner in the thread where people are guessing who and when.
  11. It's why I don't even think of going to Twins home games till June :-)
  12. Well, Santana likely comes back in May, right? And then Trevor May in May as well? There you go :-) No, seriously, they aren't going to sign anyone who will move the needle so maybe next Wednesday? Jaime Garcia.
  13. Yeah, no matter what, they are still our team. That will never change. They are who they are. I'll be there the first weekend of June, getting my Kepler bobble-head and cheering them on against the Indians. GO TWINS!!!!!
  14. Saying he underperforms his FIP assumes ERA is his actual performance. Basically, it goes back to saying ERA is the best stat to evaluate performance.
  15. How many of those teams had ridiculously poor pitching staffs? Two, right? One of which didn't make the playoffs (that team also had a horrible defense)?
  16. Prices almost always are higher at trade deadlines for quality starting pitchers. 'While relievers have been prized leading up to the last two deadline periods, no position provides potential impact like a front-line pitcher. Does it make sense to pay a premium to land a top-of-the-rotation pitcher? History says it typically does not.'
  17. They want to sign #3 or #4 type pitchers at lesser prices.
  18. on another thread. The one about twins making an offer for archer. Poster said Archer was a below average pitcher the last two years.
  19. i wouldnt want to see the prices for midseason trades while contending teams shore up their rotations for playoff push. IMO, its the worse time to buy pitching.
  20. so when our window of contention is supposedly open, we wont sign top notch FA pitching nor trade for one using a supposedly strong farm system. Leaves us one option: our organizational strength: DEVELOPING top notch pitching.
  21. he also pointed out losses over the last three seasons just after saying looking at his last three years cumulative fWAR ranking was ridiculous. Cause its okay to look at combined last three years if the info is supposedly bad, apparently.
  22. bWAR doesnt use FIP, fWAR does. bWAR uses runs allowed.
  23. making his AL rankings even better. And doing so while pitching in the AL East and pitching 200 or more innings
